OOO MMM FF SS

Rockwell. This typeface is part of the Egyptian or Slab Serif font group. The type is made to mimick the look of wood/industrial revoltion type. Compared to the other two typefaces, rockwell is thick and chunky. Compared to the other serifed font, rockwell’s serifs are very thick, prominnet, and show no curve. Also, rockwell does not have a serif on the cross bar of the F like Baskerville does. The letters are uniform and show no difference between thick and thin stroke.

Myriad Pro. This typeface is part of the Humanist Sans Serif font group. It has perfect porportions and equal strokes. Since there are no serifs to this typeface the body width of each character is smaller than that of the other typefaces with serifs. Looking at the O, the bowl appears to have a more oval shape than the other two, which are more circular. This typeface is actually similar to Rockwell if it had serifs. The cap height appears to be smaller than Rockwell but larger than Baskerville.

Baskerville. This typeface is part of the transitional font group, which is midway between old style and modern. Looking at the letterforms the strokes are not equal and vary from thick to thin. This can especially be seen in the S and M. The serifs are angled and not prominent like rockwells. The O has a perfect vertical stress with thicker sides. The F, cross bar and arm are thin and open up to a long serif. The cap height of Baskerville is smaller than both Rockwell and Myriad Pro.
